Summer Slacking

OH. MY. GOODNESS. It's so blessed hot in Illinois!!! Sooo..... Guess who's been slacking on their stock photography?? This girl. Unfortunately. Yeah... I could be doing indoor photos and spend time concentrating on being all creative and stuff but isn't this more fun than taking photos of still life???

Thanks, Debra! We were at 102 degrees at 11 a.m. this morning, ugh! But we're supposed to get a cool front come through tonight, should cool us off to a chilly 90 degrees for tomorrow lol! So if it's not in the pool or an indoor shoot I haven't been doing too much picture-wise, except over the weekend I had a few outdoor shoots which was insane and everyone was wilted and melted by the end of the day lol!

Thanks, Mariaam!! I love doing water photos, I think it's challenging and fun when you get them up on the screen to edit them and you can see each water drop. It's just interesting to me for some reason. :)

David! HAHAHAHA!!! I do have a baby photoshoot coming up but luckily it's inside and air-conditioned. This Sunday though is a different story, I'm hoping the family I'm shooting for doesn't look too melted or waxy by the time we get going on their photos because it's an outdoor one. And this heat isn't supposed to break until next week. The high today without the heat index is 100. Again. lol I think I'll just hit the pool again and save my energy hahaha! :)

Halient, that's pretty much what I did with this photo. Very unplanned but I ended up with some neat photos of my daughter like this one. She had just learned how to go underwater. So I ended up with an accepted submission and captured yet another of her "firsts" :)
